It's very easy to set up—you just sign up for an account and it'll save a number in your contacts that you can touch to activate the service. Should you want to deactivate YouMail, they also provide a contact that enters the deactivation code for you as well. If you've ever used a third-party voicemail service before, you'll appreciate the convenience of having this step pretty much taken care of for you.

Once you're in you get voicemails you can access from any device, even if you just have a web browser. You also get personal greetings specific to your contacts, the ability to block unwanted callers, and a bunch of other features. The downside is that there are some limitations to the free account, like the length and number of voicemails you can store, but upgrading to a paid account (starting at $5 monthly) will get you plenty of additional storage plus voicemail transcription (which is at least funny if not accurate). If you're looking for a good way to upgrade your voicemail without porting your number to a service like Google Voice, YouMail is pretty great.
